I have 2 workbooks. Both contain data on machines in a different format
One spreadsheet is created from data that is got off a data capture and
the other is data thats input manually.

What it is that there is a workbook shown below


NLC MACHINE START FINISH AMOUNT
1234 6584 26-Feb-06 28-Feb-06 £100.00
6929 5698 24-Jan-06 15-Feb 06 £569.35

This is the data thats input manually. Shown below is the data thats
created by the data capture computer and stored on a seperate
spreadsheet.

NLC MACHINE START TIME FINISH TIME AMOUNT
1234 6584 26FEB 06 00.01 26 FEB 06 23.59 55.00
1234 6584 27FEB 06 00.01 27 FEB 06 23.59 40.00
1234 6584 28 FEB 06 00.01 28 FEB 06 10.00 5.00
1234 6584 28 FEB06 10.10 28 FEB 06 23.59 15.00

What im trying to do is to have a function that matches up the data
thats been input in the input file with the data thats in the data
capture file. I cannot see a way it can be done as the data input is
between 2 dates and the data capture is on a daily basis. I need them
to match exactly between the 2 dates and when looked up the amounts
taken daily adds up to the amount input manually. I also need it to
somehow highlight or seperate dates and amounts that have not been
accounted for between the 2 books.
